After race at Roscommon Tue, 11th Jun, 2013 (1st)

Davy came on top of us as much as the other way around so hopefully she keeps it. The plan was to jump out and go a good gallop and use her experience. That's why we had Paul up. Andrew Ring has been riding her and doing well on her. If she goes back to a handicap he'll ride her again, but with making the running myself and the owners thought Paul had plenty of experience. The race in Listowel was a mess [fifth on June 3]. Everywhere she went she got into trouble. The winner got a bit of a freebie in front and all the fancied horse ran badly. She came out of that well so we decided to take our chance here.
